Unique Coastal Home – Ocean & Sunset Views in Sechelt

This is a very comfortable and clean property, with a huge (I mean HUGE!) living room, and three bedrooms with comfortable beds and en-suite baths. The kitchen was nice too, with anything I think you'd need to cook. Two very nice decks are perfect for a snooze, drinks, or reading. The bathrooms are great, with lots of nice towels and other linen. I loved the ventilation system in the bathrooms, which quietly kept things dry and mirrors unfogged. The floors are heated, so would be very comfortable during cooler seasons. The property has nice but narrow views of the sunset and water, across a very busy and noisy two lane highway. Location is just south of Sechelt, with lots of convenient shopping and restaurants. While you are there, make it a point to visit the interesting Sechelt Botanical Garden, not far from town. Do be aware there are bears in them there hills, so if you're going to go hiking, make noise and carry bear spray--and be ready to use it as a last resort. I understand the bears are shy, but didn't get close enough to discuss with one. Clint, the owner who lives downstairs with his friendly dog, Finn, was very responsive to any questions or requests. On the downside, the stove has some issues with some of the burners. Also, although the website says there are a washer and dryer, I didn't see one. Perhaps they are downstairs in the owner's unit? Wasn't an issue for us, and I forgot to ask, but might be an issue for you, so ask before you rent if it is.

We had a wonderful stay. The house is perfect for a family get together—comfortable bedrooms, plenty of bathrooms, and lots of room to spread out and visit. The kitchen is well stocked so it’s easy to stay in and cook. The house is also in a great location with restaurants close by in case guests wish to eat out.Our host was very flexible with our check-in and extremely helpful with our questions and requests.We’re already discussing a possible return next year!

The accommodations in the completely private second floor of the home are spacious and comfortable. The host quickly rectified some maintenance issues on our arrival. My husband and I are fit in our 70s and 80s but experienced some challenges such as a steep driveway to walk to entrance, steep stairs to basement laundry, the very busy and noisy road in front, and very steep steps to beach (if you can get across the road.) Nearby beaches and walking trails are accessible by car.

Property outside was very messy and frankly disgusting.Very spacious inside. Combination lock didn't work. Was told about a lock box, no such thing.None of the sliding doors would lock. Spent a half hour at night before bed trying to lock 4 sliding doors.
